Recently, I was stood up on a first date.
This guy claimed he was an M.D.; maybe they don't teach social skills in med school.
BUMP!
I THINK it was the same guy. LOL!!! You aren't alone girlfriend!
A guy who stands you up is a coward. If he can't look you in the eye tell you he's not interested to your face, his relationship skills are on a par with Cindy Sheehan's (all about ME) and probably he's not going to be a good, FAITHFUL protector and provider either.
Actually, I'd bet the guy wasn't an M.D. -- probably trying to use that to impress you and get your number but realized he was a fraud and didn't dare face you after all.
Sheesh. So many nice girls get burned by the FLAKES. And vice versa happens too.
"Recently, I was stood up on a first date."
I give you lots of credit anyways..I havent even made it to the point of WANTING to go out on a date yet.! :o)
Well, that's what you get for dating an "MD", instead of another person. There is a unstated message there.
Personally I would rather not know what a person does for a living prior to establishing a friendship (yes, friendship precedes serious dating, unless one is a masochist). And I certainly don't want to find out who or what she is filtered through her delusions. Nothing is as instructive as a few relaxed, long conversations.
And, certainly, that works both ways.
